python 正态分布_Tests for normality正态分布检验（python代码实现）

统计学，风控建模经常遇到正态分布检验。正态分布检验在金融信贷风控建模中常用于变量校验，让模型具有统计学意义。正态分布检验在生物医药领域也有广泛应用。很多NCBI，Science，Nature等知名平台发布生物医药统计论文参考价值有限，很多论文发布者搞不清楚统计学基本原理，误用统计学检验方法或模型。

这节课我先给大家介绍一下正态分布检验是什么，然后用python代码实现。欢迎各位学习从0到1Python数据科学之旅，腾讯课堂和网易云课堂入口分别如下：

目录：

1.Shapiro-Wilk test

样本量小于50

2.normaltest

样本量小于50， normaltest运用了D’Agostino–Pearson综合测试法，每组样本数大于20

3.Lilliefors-test

- for intermediate sample numbers, the Lilliefors-test is good since the original Kolmogorov-Smirnov-test is unreliable when mean and std of the distribution are not known.

4.Kolmogorov-Smirnov(Kolmogorov-Smirnov) test

- the Kolmogorov-Smirnov(Kolmogorov-Smirnov) test should only be used for large sample numbers (>300)

pp-plot和qq-plot结论都很类似。如果数据服从正太分布，生成的点会很好依附在y=x直线上

In all three cases the results are similar: if the two distributions being compared
are similar, the points will approximately lie on the line y D x. If the distributions
are linearly related, the points will approximately lie on a line, but not necessarily
on the line y D x (Fig. 7.1).

In tests for normality, different challenges can arise: sometimes only few samples
may be available, while other times one may have many data, but some extremely
outlying values. To cope with the different situations different tests for normality
have been developed. These tests to evaluate normality (or similarity to some
specific distribution) can be broadly divided into two categories:
1. Tests based on comparison (“best fit”) with a given distribution, often specified
in terms of its CDF. Examples are the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, the Lilliefors
test, the Anderson–Darling test, the Cramer–von Mises criterion, as well as the
Shapiro–Wilk and Shapiro–Francia tests.
2. Tests based on descriptive statistics of the sample. Examples are the skewness
test, the kurtosis test, the D’Agostino–Pearson omnibus test, or the Jarque–Bera
test.
For example, the Lilliefors test, which is based on the Kolmogorov–Smirnov
test, quantifies a distance between the empirical distribution function of the sample
and the cumulative distribution function of the reference distribution (Fig. 7.3),
or between the empirical distribution functions of two samples. (The original
Kolmogorov–Smirnov test should not be used if the number of samples is ca. 300.)
The Shapiro–Wilk W test, which depends on the covariance matrix between the
order statistics of the observations, can also be used with 50 samples, and has been
recommended by Altman (1999) and by Ghasemi and Zahediasl (2012).
The Python command stats.normaltest(x) uses the D’Agostino–Pearson
omnibus test. This test combines a skewness and kurtosis test to produce a single,
global “omnibus” statistic.

UserWarning: kurtosistest only valid for n>=20

If my understanding is correct, it indicates how likely the input data is in normal distribution. I had expected that all the pvalues generated by the above code very close to 1.

Your understanding is incorrect, I'm afraid. The p-value is the probability to get a result that is at least as extreme as the observation under the null hypothesis (i.e. under the assumption that the data is actually normal distributed). It does not need to be close to 1. Usually, p-values greater than 0.05 are considered not significant, which means that normality has not been disproved by the test.

As pointed out by Victor Chubukov, you can get low p-values simply by chance, even if the data is really normally distributed.

Statistical hypothesis testing is rather complex and can appear somewhat counter intuitive. If you need to know more details, Cross Validated is the place to get more detailed answers.

Lilliefors-test适用于中等样本数据- for intermediate sample numbers, the Lilliefors-test is good since the original Kolmogorov-Smirnov-test is unreliable when mean and std of the distribution are not known.

In statistics, the Lilliefors test, named after Hubert Lilliefors, professor of statistics at George Washington University, is a normality test based on the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test. It is used to test the null hypothesis that data come from a normally distributed population, when the null hypothesis does not specify which normal distribution; i.e., it does not specify the expected value and variance of the distribution.

statsmodels.stats.diagnostic.lilliefors

• http://www.statsmodels.org/stable/generated/statsmodels.stats.diagnostic.lilliefors.html
• statsmodels.stats.diagnostic.lilliefors(x, pvalmethod='approx')
• lilliefors test for normality,
  Kolmogorov Smirnov test with estimated mean and variance

Parameters:

x : array_like, 1ddata series, samplepvalmethod : ‘approx’, ‘table’‘approx’ uses the approximation formula of Dalal and Wilkinson, valid for pvalues < 0.1. If the pvalue is larger than 0.1, then the result of table is returned ‘table’ uses the table from Dalal and Wilkinson, which is available for pvalues between 0.001 and 0.2, and the formula of Lilliefors for large n (n>900). Values in the table are linearly interpolated. Values outside the range will be returned as bounds, 0.2 for large and 0.001 for small pvalues.

Returns:

ksstat : floatKolmogorov-Smirnov test statistic with estimated mean and variance.pvalue : floatIf the pvalue is lower than some threshold, e.g. 0.05, then we can reject the Null hypothesis that the sample comes from a normal distribution

Notes
Reported power to distinguish normal from some other distributions is lower than with the Anderson-Darling test.

K-S检验是以两位苏联数学家Kolmogorov和Smirnov的名字命名的,它是一个拟合优度检验。K-S检验通过对两个分布之间的差异的分析,判断样本的观察结果是否来自制定分布的总体。

• 数据录入

首先把要分析的数据导入到SPSS软件中,如图所示:

• 步骤1

点击“分析”,然后选择“非参数检验(N)”,选择“旧对话框”中的“1-样本K-S(1)”,如图所示。

• 步骤2

这里,我们只对“身高”和“体重”进行检验,所以把两变量导入到“检验变量列表(T)”,如图所示。

• 步骤3

然后点击“选项”,选择“描述性(D)”,点击“继续”。如图所示。

• 结果分析

点击“确定”,即可得到以下结果。

由于身高和体重的双侧显著性取值均小于0.10,故否定零假设,即认为初中生的身高和体重不服从正态分布。

柯尔莫哥洛夫-斯米尔诺夫检验（Колмогоров-Смирнов检验）基于累计分布函数，用以检验两个经验分布是否不同或一个经验分布与另一个理想分布是否不同。

在进行 cumulative probability统计(如下图)的时候，你怎么知道组之间是否有显著性差异？有人首先想到单因素方差分析或双尾检验（2 tailed TEST）。其实这些是不准确的，最好采用Kolmogorov-Smirnov test（柯尔莫诺夫-斯米尔诺夫检验）来分析变量是否符合某种分布或比较两组之间有无显著性差异。

Kolmogorov-Smirnov test原理：寻找最大距离（Distance）， 所以常简称为D法。 适用于大样本。 KS test checks if two independent distributions are similar or different, by generating cumulative probability plots for two distributions and finding the distance along the y-axis for a given x values between the two curves. From all the distances calculated for each x value, the maximum distance is searched.

如何分析结果呢？This maximum distance or maximum difference is then plugged into KS probability function to calculate the probability value. The lower the probability value is the less likely the two distributions are similar. Conversely, the higher or more close to 1 the value is the more similar the two distributions are.极端情况：如果P值为１的话，说明两给数据基本相同，如果P值无限接近０，说明两组数据差异性极大。

有一个网站可以进行在线的统计，你只需要输入数据就可以了。地址如下：http://www.physics.csbsju.edu/stats/KS-test.n.plot_form.html

当然还有更多的软件支持这个统计，如SPSS,SAS,MiniAnalysis,Clampfit10

根据软件统计出来后给出的结果决定有没有显著性差异，如果D max值>D 0.05。则认为有显著性差异。D 0.05的经验算法：1.36/SQRT(N) 其中SQRT为平方要，N为样本数。D 0.0１经验算法1.64/SQRT(N) 。当然最准确的办法还是去查KS检定表。不过大多数软件如CLAMPFIT,MINIANALYSIS统计出来的结果都是直接有P值。根据这个值（alpha=0.05）就可以断定有没有差异了。

在统计学中，柯尔莫可洛夫-斯米洛夫检验基于累计分布函数，用以检验两个经验分布是否不同或一个经验分布与另一个理想分布是否不同。

在进行累计概率（cumulative probability）统计的时候，你怎么知道组之间是否有显著性差异？有人首先想到单因素方差分析或双尾检验（2 tailedTEST）。其实这些是不准确的，最好采用Kolmogorov-Smirnov test（柯尔莫诺夫-斯米尔诺夫检验）来分析变量是否符合某种分布或比较两组之间有无显著性差异。

分类：

1、Single sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit hypothesis test.

采用柯尔莫诺夫-斯米尔诺夫检验来分析变量是否符合某种分布，可以检验的分布有正态分布、均匀分布、Poission分布和指数分布。指令如下：

>> H = KSTEST(X,CDF,ALPHA,TAIL) % X为待检测样本，CDF可选：如果空缺，则默认为检测标准正态分布；

如果填写两列的矩阵，第一列是x的可能的值，第二列是相应的假设累计概率分布函数的值G(x)。ALPHA是显著性水平（默认0.05）。TAIL是表示检验的类型（默认unequal,不平衡）。还有larger，smaller可以选择。

如果，H=1 则否定无效假设； H=0，不否定无效假设（在alpha水平上）

例如，

x = -2:1:4
x =
-2 -1 0 1 2 3 4

[h,p,k,c] = kstest(x,[],0.05,0)
h =
0
p =
0.13632
k =
0.41277
c =
0.48342

The test fails to reject the null hypothesis that the values come from a standard normal distribution.

2、Two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test

检验两个数据向量之间的分布的。

>>[h,p,ks2stat] = kstest2(x1,x2,alpha,tail)

% x1,x2都为向量，ALPHA是显著性水平（默认0.05）。TAIL是表示检验的类型（默认unequal,不平衡）。

例如，x = -1:1:5
y = randn(20,1);
[h,p,k] = kstest2(x,y)
h =
0
p =
0.0774
k =
0.5214

Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (K–S test)

wiki翻译起来太麻烦，还有可能曲解本意，最好看原版解释。

In statistics, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (K–S test) is a form of minimum distance estimation used as a nonparametric test of equality of one-dimensional probability distributions used to compare a sample with a reference probability distribution (one-sample K–S test), or to compare two samples (two-sample K–S test). The Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistic quantifies a distance between theempirical distribution function of the sample and the cumulative distribution function of the reference distribution, or between the empirical distribution functions of two samples. The null distribution of this statistic is calculated under the null hypothesis that the samples are drawn from the same distribution (in the two-sample case) or that the sample is drawn from the reference distribution (in the one-sample case). In each case, the distributions considered under the null hypothesis are continuous distributions but are otherwise unrestricted.

The two-sample KS test is one of the most useful and general nonparametric methods for comparing two samples, as it is sensitive to differences in both location and shape of the empirical cumulative distribution functions of the two samples.

The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test can be modified to serve as a goodness of fit test. In the special case of testing for normality of the distribution, samples are standardized and compared with a standard normal distribution. This is equivalent to setting the mean and variance of the reference distribution equal to the sample estimates, and it is known that using the sample to modify the null hypothesis reduces the power of a test. Correcting for this bias leads to theLilliefors test. However, even Lilliefors' modification is less powerful than the Shapiro–Wilk test or Anderson–Darling test for testing normality.[1]

KS比卡方检验更加简单和方便，但ks用于评估正态分布时，样本量需要大于300
